USDA has announced it will reinstate the July Cattle Inventory report, less than a year after the Agency’s National Agricultural Statistics Service announced it was nixing it.
It will provide a mid-year check of the U.S. cattle herd’s size when supplies are critically low, according to Drovers. January’s report shows U.S. cattle inventory shrunk, now at 87 million head.
USDA’s July Cattle Inventory Report is scheduled to be released on July 25th, 2025.
